You didn't mean to develop a crush on Lee Heeseung. That thought replayed in your mind like a broken record as you watched your best friend Sooha and Heeseung from afar, wondering where it all went wrong.

Heeseung was supposed to be just a fleeting infatuation. But as those after-school bike rides and hangouts became more frequent, your feelings inevitably grew. That’s where you went wrong, because unbeknownst to you, Sooha was also developing feelings for him. She had clearly won the battle, as she was with him now, but it wasn't like you tried to fight back. Now you were stuck with a best friend who wouldn’t speak to you and a guy you avoided for your own good.

You sat on the school rooftop, taking in the view. Ever since the incident, you had been skipping lunch, preferring the solitude of the rooftop over your usual table. You didn’t know what you did wrong, but you accepted it, as you always did. Suddenly, the sound of footsteps approaching shook you out of your thoughts. You turned around to see Heeseung walking towards you.

Panicking, you quickly gathered your things, making a hasty beeline for the exit. But before you could escape, Heeseung's hand caught your wrist.
